Game Storylines• Pitt will play a Top 10 opponent for the second time in as many weeks when it hosts No. 9/8 Oklahoma State at Heinz Field. The Panthers are looking to bounce back from last week's 33-14 loss at then-No. 4 Penn State.

• This will be only the second all-time meeting between the Panthers and Cowboys. In the inaugural game last season, Oklahoma State used a late touch-down to slip past Pitt, 45-38, in Stillwater.

• In Oklahoma State, the Panthers are facing one of the country's most proli ic offenses. The Cow-boys are averaging 51.5 points and 572.5 yards per contest.

• Fueling the Cowboys' attack is quarterback Mason Rudolph, the all-time leading passer in Okla-homa State history with 9,352 yards. Rudolph's top target is ex-plosive receiver James Washing-ton, who averages an incredible 30.4 yards per catch. Both players are All-America candidates.

• The game will be a signi icant test for Pitt's youthful defense. Through the opening two games, the Panthers have essentially been breaking in nine new start-ers on that side of the ball. This week's two-deep lists only two seniors—end Allen Edwards and cornerback Avonte Maddox—on defense.

• Pitt's ability to possess the ball will be key. Through two contests, the Panthers have averaged 36:25 in possession time, the sixth high-est average in the nation. In con-trast, the quick-strike Cowboys average only 26:42 to rank 101st.

• Oklahoma State is the highest ranked opponent Pitt has hosted at Heinz Field since a 42-30 loss to No. 8/9 Notre Dame in 2015.

• The Panthers' last win over a Top 10 foe occurred on the road, 43-42 over No. 3/2 Clemson last year in Death Valley. Pitt last defeated a Top 10 team at Heinz Field in 2003, a 31-28 win over No. 5 Virginia Tech.

√ Pat Narduzzi has directed Pitt to eight regu-lar-season wins in each of his irst two years, something the Panthers had not achieved since 2008-09.

√ In his irst two seasons, Narduzzi fashioned a 16-10 overall mark (11-5 in the ACC). The last Pitt coach to achieve as many victories in his irst two years was the late Sera ino "Foge" Fazio,

who went 17-6-1 over his initial two seasons in 1982-83.

√ In ACC annals, Narduzzi became only the ifth man to begin his head coaching career with at least eight wins in each of his irst two seasons. The others are Charley Pell of Clemson (1977-78), Ralph Friedgen of Maryland (2001-02), Jeff Jagodzinski of Boston College (2007-08) and Jimbo Fisher of Florida State (2010-11).

√ In 2016, Pitt was the only school to have wins over two teams that inished in the top 5 of the inal College Football Playoff rankings. The Pan-

thers gave No. 2 Clemson—the eventual national champion—its only loss (43-42) and kept No. 5 Penn State out of the playoff ield by defeating the Nittany Lions, 42-39.

√ In 2016, Quadree Henderson earned consensus All-America status as a return specialist after leading the country in kickoff return touchdowns (three) and combined kick return yards (1,166). Additionally, guard Dorian Johnson, now of the Arizona Cardinals, was a irst team All-American. √ In his debut campaign at Pitt in 2015, Narduzzi led the Panthers to an 8-4 regular-season record, their best 12-game mark since 2009, and a Mili-tary Bowl invitation. Pitt inished as the runner-up in the ACC Coastal Division with a 6-2 mark, its best conference record ever.

√ Pitt boasted the ACC’s top offensive and defen-sive newcomers in 2015. Safety Jordan Whitehead was named the league’s Overall and Defensive Rookie of the Year. Tailback Qadree Ollison was named the Offensive Rookie of the Year following a 1,000-yard rushing campaign.

√ Narduzzi arrived at Pitt following eight highly successful years as the defensive coordinator at Michigan State under Mark Dantonio. The Spar-tans were the only team to rank in the nation’s top 10 in total defense and rushing defense each season from 2011-14.

√ Michigan State boasted the nation’s top rush-ing defense in 2014, yielding just 88.5 yards per game. The Spartans inished third nationally with 34 turnovers gained and eighth in total defense, holding opponents to just 315.8 yards per con-test.

√ In 2014, the Spartans inished with a No. 5 national ranking and 11-2 record following a stir-ring 42-41 victory over Baylor in the AT&T Cotton Bowl. Narduzzi’s defense shut out the high-scoring Bears in the fourth quarter, opening the

door for 21 unanswered points by Michigan State in one of the most thrilling games of the 2014-15 bowl season.

√ In 2013, Michigan State inished No. 3 in the country following a Big Ten title and 24-20 vic-tory over No. 5 Stanford in the Rose Bowl. In the wake of that championship season, Narduzzi was named the 2013 recipient of the prestigious Bro-yles Award, annually presented to the country’s top assistant coach.

√ Narduzzi tutored an impressive list of decorat-ed defensive players at Michigan State, including irst team All-Americans in cornerback Darqueze

Dennard, safety Kurtis Drummond, linebacker Greg Jones and defensive tackle Jerel Worthy. Dennard was a unanimous All-American in 2013, becoming the irst Michigan State cornerback to earn that distinction. He also was the school’s irst winner of the Jim Thorpe Award, given annu-

ally to college football’s top defensive back.

√ Dennard was a irst-round NFL Draft pick of the Cincinnati Bengals in 2014, the irst Spartans defensive back taken in the initial round since 1961. In the 2015 draft, another Narduzzi pupil, Michigan State cornerback Trae Waynes, was a irst-round pick of the Minnesota Vikings.

√ Prior to Michigan State, Narduzzi spent three years (2004-06) as defensive coordinator under Dantonio at Cincinnati, helping the Bearcats to a pair of bowl invitations.

√ In 2003, Narduzzi was the defensive coor-dinator at Miami of Ohio under the late Terry Hoeppner. The RedHawks stormed to a 13-1 record that season, capturing the Mid-American Conference championship and defeating nation-ally ranked Louisville in the GMAC Bowl to inish No. 10 in the Associated Press poll.

√ Narduzzi served as linebackers coach at Northern Illinois for three seasons (2000-02). NIU won a pair of MAC divisional titles during his tenure and in 2002 had the league’s top rushing defense. From 1993-99, Narduzzi coached at his alma mater, Rhode Island, serving as the Rams’ defensive coordinator his inal two seasons. He began his coaching career at Miami of Ohio, working as a graduate assistant in 1990 and 1991, before earning his irst full-time position as receivers coach for the 1992 season.

√ Narduzzi was a starting linebacker under his father, the late Bill Narduzzi, as a freshman at Youngstown State University in 1985 before transferring to Rhode Island, where he became a three-year starter for the Rams from 1987-89.

√ Bill Narduzzi was head coach at YSU from 1975-85. He led the Penguins to two NCAA Divi-sion II playoff appearances, including the national championship game in 1979, and twice was named the Ohio Valley Conference Coach of the Year.

PITT GAME NOTES & ANECDOTESO'NEILL FINDS THE END ZONE

Brian O'Neill has started 27 consecutive games at tackle for the Panthers. However, the junior's contributions have gone beyond the conventional duties of an offensive lineman. While he was instrumental for Pitt's nationally ranked running game in 2016, O'Neill actually carried the ball twice himself last year—scor-ing touchdowns each time. His initial carry came on a throwback lateral that went for a 24-yard TD in the Panthers' 37-34 win over Georgia Tech. O'Neill reached the end zone again on an end-around play against Virginia Tech that resulted in a ive-yard score. He had two carries for 29 yards on the year (14.5 avg.) and even threw two passes (both incomplete). Originally a tight end who moved to tackle during the 2015 offsea-son, O'Neill's unconventional contributions earned him SB Nation's 2016 "Piesman Trophy," the only award in college football that honors offensive and defensive linemen who run, pass or catch the ball. He was an All-ACC selection at tackle by the coaches (second team) and media (third team).

ALL PURPOSE DYNAMOWide receiver Quadree Henderson was one of the nation's most productive all-purpose performers in 2016. Henderson ranked 11th nationally and second in the ACC with an average of 160.23 all-pur-pose yards per game. He compiled 2,083 all-purpose yards for the season, second only to legendary tailback Tony Dorsett in Pitt annals. Dorsett had 2,217 during his 1976 Heisman Trophy campaign. Dorsett and Henderson are the only players in Pitt history to reach 2,000 all-purpose yards in a season. In 2017, Henderson has totaled 188 all-purpose yards (94.0 yards per game).

Henderson had ive rushing touch-downs, three kickoff return touchdowns, one receiving TD and one punt return score. Since 2007, Henderson is just the ninth player from a Power 5 con-ference to total nine touchdowns via rushing, receiving, kick return and punt return (per ESPN.com).

JESTER'S NO JOKEIn 2016, his irst year as a starting wide receiver, Jester Weah led the Panthers in catches (36), receiving yards (870) and touchdown recep-tions (10). Weah averaged an astounding 24.2 yards per catch, which ranked second in the country and irst in the ACC. He became just the seventh Pitt player since 1989 with double-digit catches in a season to average more than 20 yards per reception. The Pitt season record for yards per catch is 28.3 set in 1991 by Dietrich Jells (12 catches for 339 yards). Weah's average ranks second to Jells.

A NOSE FOR THE END ZONEJester Weah had only one catch against Youngstown State but it was a big one—a game-winning 11-yard touchdown catch in overtime. Weah now has eight touchdown catches in his last nine games.

WEAH'S BIG NIGHTJester Weah was a catalyst in the Panthers' 43-27 win over Marshall last season by producing the highest receiving yardage by a Pitt player in 12 years. Weah compiled 176 yards on seven catches—both career highs—and made the game's decisive play when he beat a defender for a 54-yard touchdown to put Pitt up by 10 with 1:04 left. His receiv-ing yardage was the most by a Pitt player since Nov. 6, 2004, when Greg Lee had 188 yards (on nine catches) at Syracuse.

PITT GAME NOTES & ANECDOTES

YOUTH MOVEMENTPitt has only two seniors listed in its defensive two-deep: end Al-len Edwards and cornerback Avonte Maddox. The Panthers have essentially been playing with nine new starters on that side of the ball through its opening two games. In addition to Maddox, the only returning starter to play on defense has been junior linebacker Oluwaseun Idowu.

BLUE AND GOLD RUSHUnder Pat Narduzzi, Pitt has annually displayed an outstanding pass rush. The Panthers ranked sixth nationally with an average of 3.31 sacks per game (43 total) last year. In 2015, Pitt ranked 16th nationally in sacks with an average of 2.85 per game. Pitt had 37 total sacks, 18 more than it had the year before Narduzzi’s arrival (19 in 2014). On the young season, the Panthers have totaled two sacks (12 quarterback hurries) and 10 tackles for loss.

SPECIAL TEAMS NOTESHENDERSON TAKES IT TO THE HOUSE

Quadree Henderson established himself as college football's most dangerous return man in 2016. A consensus All-American as a re-turn specialist, Henderson led the nation with a school-record three kickoff return touchdowns. He also had a punt return for a score in 2016. Over his past 16 games, Henderson has a total of ive return touchdowns (dating back to the 2015 Military Bowl when he had a 100-yard kick return TD).

UNPRECEDENTED IMPACT ON RETURNS Since the 2000 season, Pitt has just 11 kickoff returns for touch-downs and Quadree Henderson is responsible for four of them. No other Pitt player during that span has more than one. In the Panthers' 2015 Military Bowl game against Navy, Henderson took the opening kickoff 100 yards for a score—Pitt's irst 100-yard kickoff return since 1990 (Ricky Turner vs. West Virginia). Hen-derson had his second 100-yard return at Miami during the 2016 season.

HOME RUN HITTERFor his career, Quadree Henderson has six kickoff returns that have gone for more than 80 yards. But perhaps the most memorable return of his career was one that didn't result in a touchdown. In the Panthers' stirring 42-39 victory over Penn State in 2016, Henderson made one of the game's critical plays when he returned a kickoff 84 yards to the Nittany Lions' 10 in the fourth quarter. Three plays later James Conner scored on a shovel pass to put Pitt up 42-31, providing the winning cushion.

RETURN MAN EXTRAORDINAIREQuadree Henderson led the nation in 2016 in combined kick return yardage with 1,166. Henderson compiled a school single-season record 914 yards on kickoffs as well as 252 on punts. Henderson's 30.5-yard kickoff return average (on 30 attempts) ranked ifth in the nation. He averaged 15.8 yards per punt return (on 16 attempts) to rank third nationally.

PITT PUNT RETURN TDS Since the 2000 season, Pitt has eight punt return touchdowns, includ-ing Quadree Henderson's 65-yarder in the Panthers' 56-14 win over Duke in 2016. Henderson's punt return TD vs. Duke was Pitt's irst that did not in-volve a block since the 2013 season when Tyler Boyd had a 54-yarder that sparked the Panthers to a 30-27 victory over Bowling Green in the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl.

2017 GAME-BY-GAME REVIEW

Pitt built a 21-0 intermission lead but needed overtime to fend off Youngstown State, 28-21, in the season opener for both teams…Jester Weah’s leaping 11-yard touchdown grab on the opening possession of OT provided the winning points…on YSU’s subsequent possession, redshirt freshman safety Bricen Garner ended the game by picking off Hunter Wells in the end zone…the victory marked the Panthers’ irst in overtime since a 36-33 win at Notre Dame in 2008…Pitt had

dropped three consecutive OT contests before beating YSU…Qadree Ollison rushed for 91 yards and two touchdowns, while Quadree Henderson ran for 77…Pitt compiled 208 yards on the ground but was outgained in total offense, 418 to 348…in his Pitt debut, Max Browne completed 17-of-24 passes for 140 yards and the winning strike to Weah…the Panthers incurred zero penalties in the game, the irst time they achieved that feat in six years (2011 at Louisville)...

Pitt moved to 3-0 in season-opening games under Pat Narduzzi…the Panthers improved to 15-1 all-time against FCS foes.

Making its irst trip to Beaver Stadium since 1999, Pitt fell to ri-val Penn State, 33-14...the loss snapped Pitt’s two-game winning streak in the series...the Panthers had won the prior two encoun-ters (2000, 2016)...three turnovers and red zone struggles plagued the Panthers (1-1)...Pitt held statistical advantages in total yards (342 to 312), irst downs (24 to 14) and time of possession (38:20 to 21:40)...two early interceptions helped Penn State build a 14-0 lead as Trace McSorley converted the miscues into a pair of touch-down passes to Mike Gesicki...Pitt scored just one TD on four trips inside PSU’s 20-yard line...backup quarterback Ben DiNucci found the end zone for Pitt on a 3-yard run in the fourth quarter...Qadree Ollison rushed for a game-high 96 yards on 15 carries (6.4 avg.)...Ol-lison also had 30 yards receiving and a two-point conversion catch...redshirt freshman kicker Alex Kessman booted his irst two ield goals as a collegian...defensively, linebacker Oluwaseun Idowu had a team-high seven tackles (including a personal-best three TFLs) and also forced a fumble.
